Advanced Nutrients

  1. Hi all, I'm guna b starting a dwc scrog using advanced nutrients.

    So far I've got
    Sensi grow an bloom a&b
    Bud blood
    Big bud
    B52
    Overdrive.
    Jus wondering if there's anything else I should b lookin to use with these?
     
  2. how many more nutrients do you need?
     
  3. [quote name='"Blazin4Bucks"']how many more nutrients do you need?[/quote]

    They all work together. The only thing im missin off the advanced nutrients schedule is voodoo juice but im readin that u dont really need it when usin budblood on the switch
     
  4. I think Voodoo Juice is missing from the lineup, but this looks strong to me. It's pretty much what I use every single time, though it's pH Perfect now.

    good luck!
     
  5. That's a good line up, you don't really need anything else. But you could add great white as a cheap voodoo juice alternative. Bud candy to feed the beneficial bacteria from great white. Root exculator as a root hormone. Rhino skin and sensizyme good also. All of those are great adds but not necessary.

    I dont mind forkin out for the ££££ for voodoo juice as its my first time hydro an i wanna make sure i maximise yeild and potentcy.

    Would voodoo juice make a noticeable difference guys????
     
  7. I would still argue that great white is a superior product that costs less but both are great products and you should notice a difference with either as long as the rest of your grow is in good shape. To get the most out if them I would also add bud candy or some other type of sugar/carb booster as the sugars feed the benificial bacteria that you are adding.
     
  8. Great white is the best myco product out there. I have tried most of them. Please take it easy feeding in dwc with AN. If using ro veg 200-400ppm and flower 500-900ppm Well better yet just read this thread if you haven't already.

    The sensi a&b will grow a dank healthy crop. I would use big bud, and rhino skin though. You should definitely look into getting a silica additive rhino skin is the only one that wont make the ph rise on the ph perfect an
     
  9. Don't go overboard buying nutes. Is your environment dialed in perfectly? That's going to make more difference.

    Voodoo Juice would most likely give you a noticeable improvement, but unless you have everything else squared away your nutrients aren't going to change your plants performance as much as youre thinking.

    What you have will do fine. Get through the grow, build on that experience. Don't try to do too much too fast or you won't be able to figure out what went wrong if things go bad.
     

  10. I use all of these plus the voodoo juice. Its their hobbyist bundle. the voodoo is a bit expensive but seems to be good sh*t
     

  11. what would voodoo juice (a bacterial supplement) have to do with Bud Blood(P&K supplement)?
     
  12. Very good advice!

    This sounds like it is your first dwc run. The plants will grow just fine using the A & B only. The other nutes will definitely help, but are not necessary. They are just additives and what you have already will work fine.
     
  13. I don't disagree, but I think he'll be happy with the results using what he has already bought in addition to the base nutrients - provided he doesn't go overboard.

    Don't fall for the "more is better" myth where new growers almost invariably start thinking if they just up the dose "a little more" the plants will get even bigger, and so on.

    I love the difference Big Bud makes, and B-52 can make a big difference if some kind of stress hits your plants.

    If he's patient, level-headed, and attentive, those additives will be worthwhile.

    Oh i get u man, im not new to growing, iv got organic and coco runs under my belt but its the frst DWC iv started. Gunna b cracking on with it after new year so ill post a link uo here to the journal. Iv allways used bud blood no matter what the medium and it really does make a big, big difference in my eyes.

    Thanks for all the replys guys
     
  15. From what I've learned so far is that you really don't need all those fancy nutrients. I have seen a journal where a guy used GH flora nova bloom only and got 12oz's off one plant. Don't waste money on all those fancy nutrients.
     

  16. Very very true. Along with most additives. A base has everything a plant will ever need and in the right ratio to one another. The only additives I believe in are kelp and silica. These are the only two things a plant can benefit that's NOT already in the base. Everything else is there and a plant can access them just fine as long as there is not a overdose or ph way off.

    Iv done all that, this runs about quality and iv got a better shot at 10/10 with the right nutes. Im not assed about weight thats what autopots r for lol
     
  18. Does this not make sense to anyone else?

    I get, I've done all that, and this runs about quality, but then he loses me...
    :smoking::laughing:
     
  19. makes complete sense :)
     
  20. I do it most every grow in under 90 days using GH, the Lucas method, a bit of cal-mag and Heisengburg tea.

    Search for the Heisenburg tea, you can spend 25 bucks and have 15 time the amount of those high prices good bennies bullshit products, plus you save on nutes because you grow more using less. ( because of the bennies in the tea)
